More proof that KVMR 89.5 FM veers all over the musical map – and then some – is in the pudding, well, the "top ten" favorites lists below. 

Very few 2018 albums – and even fewer "best sellers"- show up on multiple lists compiled by the Nevada City radio station's 150 or so volunteer broadcasters. A preliminary count shows that Davis-based bluegrass/Americana artist Rita Hosking's album, "For Real," and legendary folksinger John Prine's first original music album since 2005, "The Tree Of Forgiveness,"  may have been listed on the most broadcasters' "top ten" selections. 

Some of those participating are broadcasters at the radio station's alternative music format: KVMRx, which can  be heard on The Bridge 105.7 FM 8 p.m. to 5 a.m. weekdays and 1 p.m. to 5 a.m. weekends, and 24/7 online at kvmrx.org
